This is a timeline of hepatology, listing significant events in the development of the field.

Big picture

Time period Development summary
Ancient history Infectious jaundice is the most imposing clinical picture in hepatology and has occupied physicians for more than 2,500 years.[1]
19th century Cystic diseases of kidney and liver are recognized in the 19th Century.[2] Extensive liver or portal vein system surgery is carried out since the second half of the century.[3]
<1990s Hepatology is viewed generally as a subset of the field of gastroenterology.[4] In the 20th century, Hepatitis A, B and C virus are detected. Surgical treatment techniques for liver diseases are not included in textbooks on hepatology until 1965.[3]
1990s< Hepatology has developed substantially over the past 3 decades, from one that featured many diagnoses but very few therapeutic interventions to a specialty in which we can effectively prevent and treat many liver diseases.[4] In the 1990s, a rapid expansion of knowledge boosted the field of hepatology, with new discoveries having revolutionized the field. It is now possible to characterize and treat many more liver diseases. Newer medications in the form of interferon alfa and nucleoside analogues were added for the treatment of chronic viral hepatitis. Liver transplantation has been established as an effective therapy for patients with end-stage liver disease.[5] During the past 30 years, the introduction of more sophisticated techniques, newly developed instruments and anaesthetic procedures, and a better management of intraoperative haemodynamics, are responsible for the enormous progress in the surgical treatment of liver diseases.[3]
